Media Rights Capital, which produced the hit Netflix drama, is attempting to recoup some of the huge costs it incurred in 2017 when it sacked Spacey.
Hollywood production company claims Spacey's 'sex addiction' was an illnessThe makers of House of Cards are suing Lloyd's of London and another insurer for £40 million, claiming Kevin Spacey's alleged sex addiction was an illness they should have been covered for.
It is suing Lloyd's of London and Fireman's Fund, another insurer, in a Los Angeles court for the $50 million it says it lost after the series had to be suspended and rewritten, and three planned spin-off series scrapped. While Spacey, currently trying to resurrect his career and reputation after being acquitted in a UK court of sexual assault against four men between 2004 and 2013, later insisted he wasn't a 'sex addict', the Hollywood producers say the illness was genuine and should have been covered by the insurers.
Further muddying the waters, the underwriters claim that MRC knew about Spacey's sexual behaviour long before the scandal erupted in 2017 when actor Anthony Rapp accused the star of making sexual advances towards him when he was 14.
